-LRB- CNN -RRB- -- This week in iReport , we 're looking at one of the hottest topics of discussion lately : President Obama 's decision to send more troops into Afghanistan .

iReporters had a lot to say about this issue , but that 's not all . iReporters showed us long lines all around the U.S. for Black Friday , and one shared the story of survivors still suffering 25 years after a major industrial accident in India . Finally , a giant condom was unfurled in observance of World AIDS Day .

Obama 's Afghanistan plan -- iReporters certainly were n't at a loss for words when it came to President Obama 's recent decision to send 30,000 more troops into Afghanistan . Some believed that he was right in listening to his generals and doing exactly that . Others said that it was time for the troops to come home . No matter how iReporters felt about the issue , it was certainly a spirited debate .

Chemical disaster -- We looked at powerful international stories this week . One video commemorated the 25th anniversary of a chemical gas disaster in Bhopal , India . On December 3 , 1984 , 40 tons of poisonous chemicals escaped a Union Carbide chemical plant . iReporter Joel Gershon told us people are still suffering health problems from the tragedy , and he interviewed people who remember the accident and are feeling its effects .

World AIDS Day -- We also saw something a bit offbeat , but with a serious message . Gert Ungerer shared the story of a giant canvas `` condom '' placed over a lighthouse on the northern coast of South Africa to bring awareness of World AIDS Day . The region has felt the serious effects of AIDS . Ungerer 's video outlined how the condom structure was put up and how it looks in daylight .

Camping out for Black Friday -- Black Friday , the day after Thanksgiving , signals the start of the holiday shopping season , when people rush stores at the crack of dawn in hopes of scoring some major deals . We received photos and videos of lines and crowded stores all over the United States . Dedicated shoppers brought blankets and tents to make the wait more bearable , and some people waited for days to get the best sales . iReporter Asa Thibodaux visited a Best Buy in Maple Grove , Minnesota , to talk to some of the shoppers in line . You may be surprised at what they planned to buy .
